Introduction
CFD using PHASTA can be intimidating at the beginning. The very first things you'll need are some familiarity with UNIX and a connection to an HPC resource like one of our systems or Janus. Once you've got those two things, this page will take you through the basics of setting up and running a problem.
Setting up a problem
The tool used for preparing your model for computation is SimModeler, and instructions for running it are found on that page.
As of 4/15/14, the version of SimModeler and the tool suite for it are:
simmodeler-3.0-140309 simmodsuite-8.0-140406
After you have set up your model, you will have two files: model.smd and model.x_t. To run your problem, you will need to have geom.smd and geom.xmt_txt. You can create these by linking them to your existing files:
ln -s model.smd geom.smd ln -s model.x_t geom.xmt_txt
The final step in model preparation is pre-processing using NSPre. As of 4/15/14, the script to run is
